Mudcrabs dropping too much chitin

[Mabra51]

This affects vanilla mudcrabs and those added by mods and CC.
It's not a major issue but it's bugging me out because the model for the crab's chitin is their claws, but they are dropping from 2 to 10 upon death which doesn't make sense.
I tried using mods that alters animal drops like harvest overhaul or better harvest but it didn't changed anything.

Here's my load order but i don't remember ever installing a mod that changes their drop.

Do you know how to use SSEEdit to find conflicts? If so, then run a conflict check. It may find the change(s) for you. I looked at Conner's Survival Mode, and it does change number of food drops, maybe it has something buried in it? You could also try opening it (and any other file that has changes to drops or merchants) up in SSEEdit individually, and look for the actual numbers for the drops. Maybe something got bugged.

[Mabra51]

I don't really know where to look, i found this line but it's only modified by hearthfire and only to add the legs.

 

I've also tried loading a save without Conner's survival mod and the chitin drop seems to have been lowered to a max of 5, though that's still more than they should have.

I have the exact same issue.  I've ran through SSEDIT and nothing is touching the "DeathitemMudcrab01, DeathitemMudcrab02, and DeathitemMudcrab03."  WTF gives?

[ModEnjoyer52]

Could be SPID, SPID mods add items that donot show in SSEDIT.
